The Nutcracker Suite

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Baltic States Symphony & Franz Novacek

The Nutcracker Suite is an orchestral suite by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, published in 1892. Drawn from his full-length ballet The Nutcracker, the suite presents a sequence of short dance pieces that display Tchaikovsky's melodic gift, varied orchestral colours and nineteenth-century Romantic harmonies, and it helped introduce sections of his ballet music to concert audiences beyond the theatre.
